We visited Arbeia Roman Fort in South Shields last week as part of our topic of ‘The Romans’. We learnt about what life would have been like as a soldier at the fort and we spent time making Roman mosaics and examining Roman crafts.
The highlight of the day was meeting Maximus a real life Roman centurion, who informed us about the life of a Roman centurion and showed us how Roman soldiers would fight and defend themselves. (Click here to watch a video IMG_1759 IMG_1758 )
